Wira Aditama I love Travis Smith's drumming on the first four albums but let's be honest, Alex is way fucking better than Travis and opens up so many options of song styles for them to play because he is an insanely versatile drummer. So yes, they are lucky to have him.
Marauder623 I mean the drumming on vengeance falls is pretty weak but that’s the only album that I say that of, and vengeance falls is still an awesome album despite it probably being their weakest
Unbelievable drummer! I can play parts of what he does but christ if i can play everything remotely the same! This guy's and incredible drummer and should be watched by all metal drummers young and old, he's mustard!!
Paolo said on instagram "As long as he continues to shred, loves playing in the band, and doesn't become an asshole or develop drug issues, he's got the gig for life"
Jay xo oh for sure, I hope he stays too I'd love to see what else he can do with trivium, if you want more of his drumming though check out not your slave by battlecross
It’s those subtleties, man. This is great. Yet to find a song on this album that doesn’t satisfy, no matter if I’m in the mood for aggressive, heavy, melodic, technical, etc.
Alex's drummimg fits trivium so perfectly with the groundwork set by travis, but he adds that amazing cymbal work which takes it to a whole new level. He's the puzzle piece trivium has needed since in waves was released
OmegaDouble 7 youtube is weird. Someone will cover this within the next month. They'll watch this, listen to the song a few times and you'll have a drum cover. Now it'd take me years of work to play at this level, and not even that fluid too. Alex is on another level.
You don't just play the old stuff, you put your own spin and bring so much to the table, and the whole time you look like you don't have to try, it's fucking effortless. It's inspiring. Amazing drummer.
I saw him live on the first date of the sin and the sentence tour and the rest of the guys where making such intense faces while playing and Alex looked like he was taking a stroll through the park.
I never quite realized how amazing the drumming of this particular song is until I watched this video. Wow the tom work, amongst all the incredibleness, is astounding.
He's with Zildjian, Crush, Axis and Vic Firth. He probably doesn't have a drum head endorsement because of a certain preference with the individual drums.
I’ve seen him with Crush drums on old videos, and playthroughs. But he using a PDP on tour, and a Tama snare I think. Then along with Tama hardware, but Pearl hardware in this one. Must be legal issues or something.
Been waiting for this song since he started doing play throughs of the album. And my god, this just made me appreciate this song that much more. As a guitar player I appreciate the direction that they went on with this album. I’m also a very big drumming fan, and Alex’s playing is superb and compliments they playing beautifully. He has easily become one of my favorite drummers. Amazing skill, Alex!
Word cannot describe just how fucking awesome this is!! I watch this video so much and still cannot fathom out how to play half of it lol. So insanely tight and imaginative! Easily one of the best drummers around these days, possibly ever!
This is just such a delight. My personal favorite on the album. Very impressive to watch you nail that fill at the end. And your set up is cooler than penguin shit.
Dude can PLAY… and can WRITE… Like holy shit… where’d you come from? Fuckin… LEGEND… Alex, you’re simply amazing…..hat’s off… one of the best metal drummers of the time…. No shit
Anyways guys here's Wonderwall. lol Can't stop watching these drumming videos. Hopefully we get to see other albums if you get a second to sit down and play to them
You are a FUCKING BEAST ALEX!!!!!! So glad that you are the drummer of Trivium, who have been a favorite of mine but no real drummer to call the "sound" of the band. You are adding such a great aspect to this already awesome band. Keep posting and we will keep watching lol
Thanks for another great video! This made my day (and my week). I'm curious about the mix of heads, Aquarian/bass, Remo/snare and Evans/toms (I think). Could you tell us about the set you use? I guess the reason you don't endorse any brand it's that you prefer the specific sound of a concrete head. Keep up with your amazing drumming and work. Regards!
Yes! Been waiting for this one since you released the first Trivium play-through! Amazing work! Absolutely love your drumming on this song and really the whole album! Keep up the good work man!

Trivium is lucky to have a drummer of this caliber.
so is alex bent is lucky to be in Trivium right?
Wira Aditama I love Travis Smith's drumming on the first four albums but let's be honest, Alex is way fucking better than Travis and opens up so many options of song styles for them to play because he is an insanely versatile drummer. So yes, they are lucky to have him.
They're lucky to have found each other. A match made in heaven.
j etait pas disponible.joke.
Definitely. This guy is a BEAST! \m/
He looks like he is constantly thinking *a bit of this.... And a bit of that... Uh check out this fill... How about some of this..*
Jutzinho LOL
Lol 😂
"take that, lars..."
Finley, now why you gotta bring Lars into this?
It is if you were right inside his head
You're killing it man! So stoked for you.
Oh yuuuurr
Oh yuuuurr
oh yuuuurr
Would love to see you cover his performance on your channel soon Samus.
Thank you Alex. You've made Trivium great again.
You're welcome dude!!
Great again? I never thought they lost it.
Alex Cunha lmao
Marauder623 I mean the drumming on vengeance falls is pretty weak but that’s the only album that I say that of, and vengeance falls is still an awesome album despite it probably being their weakest
What do you get when come across an Octopus with a whole load of Ice Cream
- Alex Bent
No one's said anything about that fill at 1:53 it's awesome!
Damn right man, pretty awesome
That was my favorite part
Alex Bent is the MAN. 🔥\m/🔥
Daniel he slipped the first half of it through with those ghost notes without me even noticing the first time, I had to rewind it lmao
Unbelievable drummer! I can play parts of what he does but christ if i can play everything remotely the same! This guy's and incredible drummer and should be watched by all metal drummers young and old, he's mustard!!
They better not let Alex go, he’s amazing
Jay xo If they let go Alex, that’s wouldnt Alex’s... would be Triviums
Paolo said on instagram "As long as he continues to shred, loves playing in the band, and doesn't become an asshole or develop drug issues, he's got the gig for life"
I really hope he does stay though. I like the direction the band is taking with him, and his impeccable drumming.
Jay xo oh for sure, I hope he stays too I'd love to see what else he can do with trivium, if you want more of his drumming though check out not your slave by battlecross
But does it *BENT* ?
totally not DJENT
You might be at the start of a whole new era of memes, sir!
You ask and Alex will deliver.
Great work.
Alex really brought something different to the table. Absolutely phenomenal, no words.
Most chill Metal drummer out there !
Looks like he's playing a slow ballad, while his skills are insanely high
the only part I can play: 6:05 - 6:15
Peter Spalda lol that's all I'd be able to play too
Sameee
Lowkey me too
I still can't play it...
😂😂😂😂 your not alone and even then I'm sure I'll mess the part up lol
Wow I didn't know how to play the outro and after watching Alex playing it...I still don't get it 😅
Nice work and great song!
that's a jaw-dropping performance, can't get enough of Alex Bent
It’s those subtleties, man. This is great. Yet to find a song on this album that doesn’t satisfy, no matter if I’m in the mood for aggressive, heavy, melodic, technical, etc.
You can tell every note was well thought out. Such a good drummer!
Alex's drummimg fits trivium so perfectly with the groundwork set by travis, but he adds that amazing cymbal work which takes it to a whole new level. He's the puzzle piece trivium has needed since in waves was released
After every play through, I go back and listen to the whole album to hear all these dope little tasty bits Alex adds!
I've never seen a drummer who is so busy and perfectly tasteful and masterful at the same time
Fun to watch. These videos make a good addition to live shows where we can barely see you behind the Kit.
I wonder how many years it'll take to see covers of this
OmegaDouble 7 youtube is weird. Someone will cover this within the next month. They'll watch this, listen to the song a few times and you'll have a drum cover. Now it'd take me years of work to play at this level, and not even that fluid too. Alex is on another level.

Never left Trivium, all the fans we love you.
I envy that look of peaceful zen.
Possibly the best feature lmao. Doesnt even look like he breaks a sweat lol
I saw him live on the first date of the sin and the sentence tour and the rest of the guys where making such intense faces while playing and Alex looked like he was taking a stroll through the park.
This skilled of a drummer is exactly what Trivium has been needing.
watching drummers like this always helps me want to get better ... amazing
This song grabs me nearly as hard as Shogun does. Drumming is spectacular. Thanks for sharing these Alex!
I'm always in awe of people playing technically challenging music while looking utterly chilled at the same time. Amazing! \m/
Alex, you're drumming on the new album is a breath of fresh air brother. Love it! Stay with Trivium and become a legend!
at first look like "ha ha this guys had to much cymbals" and after watching the whole video "get this men more cymbals!" *wakandaintensifies
Mr. Bent has to be the king of adding little things here and there.
I never quite realized how amazing the drumming of this particular song is until I watched this video. Wow the tom work, amongst all the incredibleness, is astounding.
Brings a whole other meaning to the phrase "get bent..."
This guy is a monster
This man is what Trivium needed so solid man just killed it enough said such clean crisp playing
i wonder if we ever vill se a '' alex bent fail compilation''. i bet we wont!
Tobias Johansson MAYBE drop a stick....even then his recovery wud be smooth haha
When I saw them live in vancouver last year, Alex messed up where they were in Kiristute Gomen after an interruption in the song.
ruclips.net/video/TNcwOujeCVw/видео.htmlm27s no he did not!
It will be very, very short...
@@DividedWillow that moment when you realize you confused a massive drum kit for a guitar player.
But can he play "Smoke on the water" ??
Haidar Ali Enter Sandman might be a tough one.
Brendon Donaldson exactly!!!
I doubt if he can play seven nation Army.
Gold ice. inc. That song is so brutal that not even the drummer that played can do it live...
no
Alex is on a whole other level one of the most technical drummers I’ve seen in a while
The sickest thing I find about Alex is how easy he makes stuff I can't dream of playing look. Good lord!
This is my new favorite song from the record. Sever the Hand is a close second.
The same here, man...
Alex is freaking awesome it doesn’t matter which kind of songs he plays. Best trivium drummer I hope he stays forever!
You are just incredible Man !! I think you could stay with Trivium for a long time !! Good luck for your future ! 🤘🏻
Valentin Marchand "for a long time" I'm pretty sure he's staying as long as trivium exists
OmegaDouble 7 And I want that of course ✌🏻
OmegaDouble 7 yeah, Travis Smith and Nick were drummers for Trivium ‘for life’ too and they fucked off - that’s what he’s getting at.
Valentin Marchand He must. Other Drummers can't play this shit xD
WOW! Jaw hits the floor - Alex, simply amazing!!!!!!
I'm actually shocked this doesn't have more views. This is one of his best playthroughs!
He just makes everything look so easy and flawless
1:52 - 1:59
That's what happens when he summoned a demon into the body
This right here is the one I was waiting for. Those fills bring feels.
Somebody endorse this man! So many drum, hardware, and head changing! Give the man what he wants!
He's with Zildjian, Crush, Axis and Vic Firth. He probably doesn't have a drum head endorsement because of a certain preference with the individual drums.
I’ve seen him with Crush drums on old videos, and playthroughs. But he using a PDP on tour, and a Tama snare I think. Then along with Tama hardware, but Pearl hardware in this one. Must be legal issues or something.
Amazing. Every reason why Alex gets the top gigs is right here in this video!
You gave life back to one of the most capable metal bands today.
Been waiting for this song since he started doing play throughs of the album. And my god, this just made me appreciate this song that much more. As a guitar player I appreciate the direction that they went on with this album. I’m also a very big drumming fan, and Alex’s playing is superb and compliments they playing beautifully. He has easily become one of my favorite drummers. Amazing skill, Alex!
Been waiting for this one, hi hat work is amazing, but so is snare, tom's symbols and kick, cant fault it, well done alex
One of the best drummers I've ever seen. He can become a living legend. Amazing job.
The fill at 1:53 gives me goosebumps. Astounding
You can tell he enjoys the hell outta playin. Good quality. Kickass bro! As always.
Word cannot describe just how fucking awesome this is!! I watch this video so much and still cannot fathom out how to play half of it lol. So insanely tight and imaginative! Easily one of the best drummers around these days, possibly ever!
A sick playthrough of one of my favourites off the new album, i am so glad you ended up with Trivium, your style fits beautifully with them =D
This is the second best RUclips video I've ever seen!
This is quality drumming! can watch this for hours 🤘
Can’t wait for Trivium’s next album hopefully wirh alex as a drummer. He will give Trivium the next demension they need and it’s proven in this album
Makes it look absolutely effortless, trivium are lucky to have such a beast behind the kit
This is just such a delight.
My personal favorite on the album.
Very impressive to watch you nail that fill at the end.
And your set up is cooler than penguin shit.
Great drummer you are...
Dude can PLAY… and can WRITE…
Like holy shit… where’d you come from? Fuckin… LEGEND…
Alex, you’re simply amazing…..hat’s off… one of the best metal drummers of the time…. No shit
Was trying to figure out that middle part forever and now you play through it...aahhh thank you for doing these
The beast drummer in The world!!
Really nice job man!! 🤘🏻
"Hey Alex, i think you should slow it down just a little bit"
Alex: nahhhh 4:50
Anyways guys here's Wonderwall. lol
Can't stop watching these drumming videos. Hopefully we get to see other albums if you get a second to sit down and play to them
still surprised that you have not made drumplays for Wdms album
Really takes a lot for me to give credit to another drummer, but alex. You are the real deal.
Lol, are you effing kidding me?! Dude, you were busy. You're brilliant. It's awesome to watch.
flawless !
What a drummer who makes look so easy.
How could it be so easy...You are a god of drums !
This guy is a fking legend, one of the best drummer this days imo
You are a FUCKING BEAST ALEX!!!!!! So glad that you are the drummer of Trivium, who have been a favorite of mine but no real drummer to call the "sound" of the band. You are adding such a great aspect to this already awesome band. Keep posting and we will keep watching lol
You are definitely my top artist of all times!
Thanks for another great video! This made my day (and my week). I'm curious about the mix of heads, Aquarian/bass, Remo/snare and Evans/toms (I think). Could you tell us about the set you use? I guess the reason you don't endorse any brand it's that you prefer the specific sound of a concrete head. Keep up with your amazing drumming and work. Regards!
I’ve been waiting for this! So glad Alex did a play through. Can’t wait to see Trivium in April 🤘🏻
Next level, dude. My reason to listen Trivium.
He was a beast with BattleCross, but now with Trivium has gotten alot more exposure. Great job Alex keep on rocking man 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Awesome playing Alex!!! The new album is amazing!!!
Trully like a machine.... Badass dude..... Now i want to watch you cover thrown into fire

Alex Best! \m/
Came here for 6:46.... was not disappointed
Dude you're a freaking beast! I am huge fan of your style. I think you're better than their first drummer.
Yes! Been waiting for this one since you released the first Trivium play-through! Amazing work! Absolutely love your drumming on this song and really the whole album! Keep up the good work man!
I love all these play through videos but damn this guy is amazing bravo
Man, you seem to be the best drummer in the current metal world. Really!
Beautiful track this! Not only did you make this album the best one yet but the fucking drumming is INSANE. Hats off to you mate!
Dude, you are just amazing! There is so much happening when you are on the drums...thats insane!
What a great drummer!
The drum sound is amazing, and i love the serenity in your face :D
Dude is so amazing! Such an incredible drummer!
He looks really comfortable and giving off really good vibes.
This is the best cover on youtube!
